  • Compile, organize, and maintain reusable proposal content including executive summaries, capabilities statements, past performance references, program management plans, quality control plans, staffing plans, transition plans, graphics, tables, and charts.
  • Participate in capture and proposal strategy reviews and solution sessions to ensure a clear understanding of the proposed approach and messaging.
  • Provide guidance regarding proposal compliance and overall content quality.
  • Identify gaps, risks, or unclear elements in the proposed solution and work with SMEs and leadership to clarify and strengthen the written response.
  • Assist with developing and maintaining SOPs, KMS artifacts, Past Performance Library , and other documentation related to proposal development.
  • Support capture managers with proposal preparation and solution documentation activities prior to solicitation release, as needed.
  • Demonstrate flexibility and a positive, solutions-oriented mindset while supporting rapid proposal response timelines.
  • Take ownership of assigned sections and deliver high-quality work in a fast-paced proposal environment.
  • Support rapid development of RFIs, white papers, and other pre-solicitation responses by translating SME input into clear, concise written content.
